Chapter 102: Dan Dao Holy Hand
Hong Jun entered the alchemy room, and with a flick of his hand, Sancai Burning Pole Ding appeared in front of him, and landed steadily on the ground with a soft bang.
Walking around the Baoding twice, carefully observing the formation patterns on the Ding's body, Hong Jun pondered for a moment, no longer hesitated, and slapped on the Ding with one hand to inject mana, preparing to refine this Dan Furnace Sacrifice into his own magic weapon.
This Sancai Burning Extreme Ding is a sixfold heavenly consummation magic weapon, in which there are fifty-four layers of prohibitions, if you follow the usual method of sacrifice and refinement, it will take at least half a year to break down all the prohibitions and refine them again. However, the Dan Furnace has one thing in common with special magic weapons such as the Xiao Qiankun Bag and the Flying Shuttle, that is, you can use their main functions without going deep into the refining sacrifice.
Moreover, with Hong Jun's mana, it is not enough to drive the Sancai Burning Extreme Ding as his own self-defense treasure, so he only needs to make a rough sacrifice and be able to use it to refine the pill.
It took more than two hours for Hong Jun to roughly refine the Sancai Burning Extreme Ding, and it was already able to operate normally, no different from an ordinary Dan furnace.
After a night's rest, Hong Jun recovered to his best state, refreshed a hundred times, and started his first alchemy.
The hand pinched the trick, and continuously hit the Sancai Burning Pole Ding, and the Dan furnace buzzed immediately, emitting a black, blue, and red light, and a machine spring popped out under the belly of the Ding, and a drawer-like cabinet stretched out, about a foot square, three or four inches high. This is the place where the spiritual coal is placed under the Baoding, which is the source of the flame in the Ding.
Spiritual coal is a neatly cut six-sided square, which is crushed into powder by crushing the fire spirit stone, mixed with the scraps of molten wood, and supplemented by a variety of heating materials to support combustion, it is made into spiritual coal. Spirit coal is an indispensable thing when refining pills, whether it is the powder of fire attribute spirit stones or molten wood, the value is not low, and it is almost using spirit stones as fuel to alchemy.
In fact, a long time ago, when the spirit coal did not appear, the alchemist directly used the fire spirit stone as fuel to refine the pill, at that time. The consumption of one alchemist was enough to bankrupt an ordinary sect. Until the spirit coal was manufactured, the value of the spirit coal was less than one-tenth of the spirit stone, which greatly reduced the cost of alchemy, and the number of alchemists skyrocketed a lot. But it's still rare.
"Dan furnace, spirit coal, materials, Dan Fang, which one doesn't require a large number of spirit stones to buy? Alchemy is really a side business that burns money, and ordinary monks really can't afford to learn it. ”
Hong Jun shook his head, he hadn't started alchemy yet, and he had spent tens of thousands of spirit stones just in preparation, no wonder alchemists were so rare in the cultivation realm.
In addition to the Fire Spirit Stone and Spirit Coal, the Fire of the Earth Lungs can also be used as a heat source for the Dan Furnace. However, the earth fire is deep underground, and the temperature is extremely high, violent and blazing, it is difficult to tame, and it is necessary to build an alchemy room to suppress the earth fire. Only by laying down a heavy magic circle and controlling the temperature of the earth fire can it be used for alchemy.
The cost of the Earth Fire Pill Room is an unimaginable number, it is almost impossible to build it without the action of a great monk who is good at the formation path, in the entire Xuanzhou, there are only a handful of sects that have the Earth Fire Pill Room, and the alchemists of the vast majority of sects still use spirit coal as fuel. I have never had the opportunity to touch the Earth Fire Pill Room in my life.
Naturally, there is no Earth Fire Pill Room on Meizhou Island, Hong Jun has already bought a batch of spiritual coal, took out more than a dozen square spiritual coal from the Qinglian Treasure Jian to fill the belly, and then closed it.
After thinking about it for a while, Hong Jun simply took out all the materials to be used in alchemy, and introduced the formula. Capture this thing in mid-air with the object technique, and use it at any time.
What he was going to refine today was the Qi Gathering Pill, which was the most common pill in the cultivation realm to restore mana, and it was difficult to find a simpler and easier pill among all the pills, and it was also the first pill that most alchemists got started with when they started. Days ago. Hong Jun had simulated the process of alchemy hundreds of times in his light brain, and what he had to do now was practice, not really being inexperienced like other monks.
Taking a deep breath, Hong Jun no longer hesitated, and opened the lid of the Ding of the Lotus to operate the magic technique, and with a flick of his fingers, a little spark fell into the Ding, igniting the spiritual coal hidden under the belly of the Ding, and suddenly there was a bang, the fire bloomed, the temperature gradually increased, and a heat wave gushed out from the Ding, illuminating the entire Dan room.
This spark seems to be unremarkable, but it is actually a spell, called the Spirit Burning Technique, the temperature is extremely high, far more terrifying than the flames released by the ordinary fire spell, but the distance of casting is too short, and it will dissipate after one or two breaths, it cannot be used for fighting methods, and the only use is to ignite the spirit coal during alchemy.
The spirit coal burned brightly, and it was replaced by other monks to refine the pill, and if there was no spell to protect itself, he would not dare to get too close after lighting the pill furnace. But Hong Jun has the power of devouring fire, and he is not afraid of high temperatures, he directly stepped forward to watch the flames in the ding, and even put his hand on the surface of the Dan furnace to feel the temperature inside.
He did this in order to better grasp the temperature of the furnace and accurately grasp every opportunity in the process of alchemy.
Due to the special nature of the Sancai Burning Pole Ding, its furnace fire is black, blue and red, which is different from the pure red furnace fire of the ordinary Dan furnace, Hong Jun withdrew the injected mana little by little, so as to adjust the furnace temperature, the furnace fire slowly weakened, and the touch from his hand also noticed that the temperature was dropping.
The red light is faint, the furnace fire in the ding is shrinking rapidly, in a state that will be extinguished, only a little small flame remains, Hong Jun kept it for a while, the fierce increase force input, the furnace fire is high again, and the three-color flame rushes out of the Ding cover more than a foot high, which is quite terrifying, and then converges all of a sudden.
For a whole hour, Hong Jun repeated hundreds of times to debug the fire of the Dan furnace, and the light brain was also running all the time, through the touch of his hand, reading thousands of times of data per breath, like an accurate thermometer, and then through data comparison, he quickly mastered the performance of Sancai Burning Pole Ding, and could adjust the temperature of the furnace at will.
The first difficulty in the way of alchemy is to master the heat of the Dan furnace, for a monk, if he can skillfully and accurately grasp the heat, he is already a qualified alchemist.
But it's easy to say, but it's hard to do.
The furnace fire changes rapidly, the vast majority of monks rely on experience when refining the pill, and they can't say the specific way to grasp the fire, some look at the feeling, some watch the furnace flame, some pinch the hour, and some press the Dan prescription, but there is no real universal method, so it also causes the alchemist's low success rate, and in the end can only rely on a large number of material inputs. Accumulate experience and explore the way of alchemy.
In the cultivation realm, there are many cultivators who can do alchemy, but there are very few qualified alchemists. A monk who can be called an alchemy master, even if he only has qi refining cultivation, his status can be compared to the Jindan real person, and the alchemy master is even rarer, even rarer than the Yuanying monk.
There are very few qualified alchemists in casual cultivation, because cultivating a qualified alchemist requires countless materials, and casual cultivation is alone, where can I find so many materials? Only those big sects have such financial resources, and a large number of spirit stones and materials are concentrated on a few disciples who have alchemy talents, and they have been alchemy for many years. Learn to control the heat, impart experience, and finally have one or two qualified.
Hong Jun was not very enthusiastic about alchemy, but after learning about the difficulties of alchemy, he thought of his light brain and fire-devouring supernatural powers. I had a general idea in my heart, so I deliberately got the Dan prescription of the Silver Sturgeon Quenching Bone Pill, and I had a good grasp of the alchemy.
"It's time to go. ”
Thinking back to the Dan Fang of the Qi Gathering Pill, Hong Jun lowered the furnace temperature to a lower level first, and with a little fingertip, he threw a handful of medicinal materials into the ding. This is the three-leaf ring star grass, the main medicine for refining the Qi Gathering Pill. The lid was immediately closed, the temperature rose, and the fire was already disposing of the three-leaf ringing star grass inside.
Hong Jun silently calculated the time, accurate to the second, and the temperature of the furnace fire was also stable under his control, a few minutes later. He opened the lid and threw a blind adjuvant into it.
These materials are pre-processed, dried, damp, and powdered. And so on, and the methods of preservation are also different, Hong Jun knows the nature of the material well. Blue lotus, spiritual food flower, toad crisp, raspberry spiritual root...... Hong Jun strictly followed the Dan Fang, step by step put more than a dozen materials into the Dan furnace, the amount of materials is not bad at all, with the need to change the temperature of the furnace, there is no step wrong.
If there were outsiders present at this time, seeing Hong Jun's alchemy steps, they would never believe that this was his first alchemy, his movements were as smooth as flowing water, as if he had practiced thousands of times without any hesitation, this kind of performance was even more confident than an alchemy master.
An hour later, a pungent fragrance wafted from the Dan furnace.
The timing of opening the furnace to take the Dan is also a very test of the alchemist's kung fu, not a little earlier, not a little later, a careless may turn the entire Dan furnace into waste slag.
Hong Jun sniffed his nose, but he didn't rush to open the furnace, patiently operated the temperature of the furnace, and continued to wait for a while, until the Danxiang reached its strongest, the fierce mana stopped, the furnace fire was extinguished, and the lid of the Sancai Burning Pole Ding flew upward, and a large ball of Dan liquid splashed out of the furnace.
Hong Jun had already prepared, and controlled the pill liquid with the ingestion technique, and with the flick of his ten fingers, the pill liquid peristalsis separated into twenty-four parts, gradually forming round droplets one by one, seeing the opportunity, he opened his mouth and spewed out a cold breath, and in an instant, all the pill liquid cooled down and solidified into a round pill.
"It's done. ”
Hong Jun was overjoyed in his heart, and took a pill in front of him at will to observe, this pill of Qi Gathering Pill was as white as jade, like a good jade bead, looking at it with Qi Magic, there was a layer of invisible light on the surface, and the aura fluctuations were extremely vague, indicating that the medicinal power was restrained and easy to preserve.
"This Qi Gathering Pill is considered qualified, I don't know how effective the medicine is?"
Hong Jun directly ate this Qi Gathering Pill, and a warm current was born in his abdomen, which quickly spread throughout his body, entered the Dantian Qi Sea, and quickly replenished the mana consumed by the alchemy just now.
"Yes, the effect is acceptable. Judging from Hong Jun's eyes, the difference between this Qi Gathering Pill and the sale of the Sect Dao Pavilion is not big, or even better, but there are still a few flaws, and it has not reached the best level, but this is his first alchemy, and it is very good to be able to do it to such a point, and it can scare all the alchemists in the world to death if he says it.
If it is another monk, the first alchemy has a good finished product, then it is the capital of the heavens, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the holy hand of the Dan Dao, but Hong Jun is not satisfied, he can do better. Thinking back to the refining process of this furnace of Qi Gathering Pill, correcting some minor mistakes, Hong Jun reopened the furnace for alchemy.
"Come again!"
